Ultimate Fighting Championship officials announced the booking
Thursday. The July 19 event takes place at the O2 in Dublin and is
headlined by a titular featherweight clash pitting Irish talent
Connor McGregor against veteran Cole
Miller.

Parke, 27, won “The Ultimate Fighter: The Smashes” in 2012, posting
three straight wins to begin his UFC career. The Northern Irishman
last competed on March 23, fighting Leonardo
Santos to a majority draw at UFC Fight Night “Shogun vs.
Henderson 2.”

Kotani, 32, is a veteran of 50 pro fights spanning more than 13
years of competition. The Rings veteran completed a two-fight stint
with the UFC in 2007, coming up short against Thiago
Tavares and Dennis
Siver. More recently, the Japanese talent has won 13 straight
fights, kicking off 2014 with a unanimous decision victory over
Yoshihiro
Koyama under the Vale Tudo Japan banner.
